Uzumaki Naruto 1/6th Scale Figure from Naruto Shippuuden
Ever since we got the Uchiha Sasuke 1/6th Scale Figure by Medicom, we’ve been hunting for the Uzumaki Naruto counterpart. Our search even brought us to Singapore and Hong Kong but we always ended up with nothing. The good news though is that after almost 5 months, we finally were able to get the figure! It was sold to us in one of the local toy collector Facebook groups.
The Naruto figure has the same build, materials, and quality that we saw with Sasuke. The body is made from a mix of ABS and PVC while the clothes are made from actual fabric. It stands around 11.7-inches tall and comes with multiple hand pegs, accessories, and two heads with different facial expressions (serious and smiling).
Highly Detailed, Could Use More Articulation
Since this is Naruto from the Shippuuden arc, he’s already quite grown up and he’s wearing the black-orange ninja suit. The zipper of the suit actually works (up front) and he’s wearing the netted black undershirt which we also see in the anime series. Along his waist there’s a pouch for his shurikens and there’s also a bag for his kunais on his leg.
In terms of articulation, the figure is generally posable but the tight pants makes it hard to flex the legs. This is the same problem we encountered with the figure of Sasuke. Everything else though is pretty good! The arms are easy to move around.
Here are a some photos of the figure in different angles for your appreciation:
Not bad right? Awesome figure especially for Naruto fans like us!
Rasengan!
The figure came with multiple hand pegs with different poses and weapons. The more generic ones are the closed fists, open palms, and the ninja sign. The more custom pegs include one with the Rasengan and two pegs (L-R) holding kunais. The weapons are great for action shots and posing! Here are some shots again for your reference:
The figure also came with a plastic stand with a small base. This is probably the worst and ugliest stand we’ve seen to ship with 1/6th scale figures. Medicom should just use the same stands that Hot Toys or Sideshow Collectibles uses for their figures. In our photos (action shots) we used the Hot Toys Dynamic Stand.
Custom: Sage Mode
What made the figure even more special was that it came with a custom robe and giant scroll (made by the seller, didn’t come in the box). This is the same wardrobe that Naruto used when he fought Pain. It definitely looks soooooo kick ass and we’re working on trying to get stickers so that we can copy the “Sage Mode” Naruto face.
Here are a couple of pics showing Naruto in action together with Sasuke and… uh… Iron Man (lol).
Two Thumbs Up!
As Naruto fans we’re thrilled to finally have the main character in our 1/6th collection. It’s sad that Medicom didn’t make figures anymore for the other characters but we definitely would have bought them if they did. For now though we’re very happy to have both Naruto and Sasuke in our toy cab for display. Definitely worth every peso.
There are no local shops that sell the figure right now but when it was still available the price ranged from Php11,000-Php14,000. Today the value of the figure is anywhere from Php15,000-Php25,000 (based on our inquiries from online sellers here and in HK/SG).
